Assemblage, Book Arts, Mixed Media--and whatever else strikes our many Fancies!Between us we have many talents and interests. We like rusty and vintage and quirky. At the moment, Camille is focused on Assemblage (that's A-sahm-blahge') and Kip is besotted with making books. When we have time and feel like it, we will host amazing artists to share their brilliance with us and some lucky others at workshops. Maybe we will be inspired to teach a few workshops or classes ourselves. We may wander off into other things here and there--Photography (Camille), Zentangle(R) (Kip), Mixed Media, (both)--and more. We are always learning.Browse through our pages and enjoy--we are!

Camille Breaks the Ice

Camille did her first Art Show with sales--at the Turner Dodge House in Lansing on Sunday. There wasn't much traffic--small crowded venue and not much in the way of marketing--BUT--people were very intrigued by her work and had a great time figuring out what parts were while they admired the finished piece. AND she actually sold stuff!!!!!I'm quite sure I was as excited as she was. We also made some great connections--always a big plus. I brought my good camera--but no battery! Therefore--I apologize for both the sparsity and the quality of the pictures from my phone and iPad, but trust me--it was spectacular!

This is one of my favorites--

Some smaller pieces--

Other pieces--

Happy first customer!

Well--We did it!

Submitted pieces to our first show! Its a non-juried show, hanging for the month of May in the very cool restaurant "Gracies" in Williamston, MI.Of course, we learned a few things doing it--a lot of what's entailed, what works and what doesn't, but those are useful things to start learning.Each of us hung two pieces, and I must say--we look dang good! And very REAL.If you are local, or in the neighborhood, go check it out.
